Apple Reports Strong Q4 Results Under New CEO Amid Rising Memory Costs
Apple reported stronger-than-expected fiscal fourth-quarter results under new CEO John Ternus, with revenue reaching approximately $114.5 billion and profit rising to about $30.7 billion. Growth was driven by strong iPhone 18 Pro sales, price increases, and expanding services revenue. However, rising memory-chip costs and AI-related expenses are expected to pressure gross margins and slow profit growth in the upcoming holiday quarter. Investors are closely watching Apple's product launches, AI strategy, and outlook amid a broader tech sector downturn.
